Running....for a long time
... of the race you were registered to run, the white was 5k, blue was 13.7k and yellow was the half marathon, 21k. I suppose any experienced runner would have known this though I had never been to a actual marathon or long race like this. Not that surprising other than my girlfriend has completed several marathons (my absence is a sore subject).
